QUETTA AFP May13, 2017 - Gunmen on motorbikes opened fire on construction workers, killing 10 in Pakistan’s restive southwestern province of Balochistan, officials said Saturday.   

Mineral-rich Balochistan has been plagued for decades by a separatist insurgency and sectarian killings and gunmen have previously targeted labourers seen as outsiders in the region.
